Chapter 152
Hiding the Twins from Their Billionaire Father
Jeremy shrugged lightly. âLive life as usual. How about we continue the party now? Guests will be bored if they wait too long.â
Kara quickly nodded. Putting Emily into Frankâs arms, she whispered, â Jeremyâs right. Letâs go back to the party.â
She gave him a wink. Frank understood what she meant.
âOkay, Mrs. Bellâ¦.â Frank turned to face Vivian. However,
remembering that she was Normanâs ex and the mastermind behind the incident with Kara, he suddenly felt awkward. âWeâll talk again. later.â
Vivian gave a small nod. She was grateful for the coupleâs understanding. She really needed time with Jeremy.
However, when Frank and Kara walked towards the door, Jeremy was about to follow. Without thinking, Vivian held his arm. âJeremy â¦. She looked at him with longing
ng eyes!
Jeremy furrowed his brows faintly. After a blink, he muttered, âI donât think we have anything to talk about now, Madam. As Young Master and Young Lady said, they need time to digest everything.â
Vivianâs nose flared. Her heart ached to hear that her son was
reluctant to call her âmotherâ.
However, Vivian understood. She could no longer force her ego. Af one heavy breath, she loosened her grip. âCan we talk after youâve calmed down?â she asked hopefully.
Jeremy fell silent for a moment. Taking a heavy breath, he nodded faintly. âExcuse me, Maâam.â
With aching heart, Vivian watched her son walk away. She had
expect it to be that painful.

âHey, youâre still here?â Kara whispered as she approached her lover at the side of Louisâ bed.
Frank looked over. Seeing Kara in a nightgown, he smiled. âTheyâre sleeping very soundly. They must be tired. A lot happened today.â
Kara stopped next to Frankâs chair, staring at the twins. Emily looked cute with her cheek puffed up by Yemon, while Louis looked adorable with his mouth slightly agape.
âApart from the incident earlier, I think they had fun.â Kara glanced at Frank and pursed her lips. âThank you for preparing a lively party for the twins.â
âNo need to thank me, Kara. Itâs my duty.â Frank grabbed his loverâs fingers and stroked them.
Karaâs smile widened again. However, seeing the sadness in Frankâs gaze, the twinkle in her eyes didnât last long. âWant to talk to me? Iâm ready to listen.â
Frank took a deep breath. After he got up from the chair, they left Louisâ bed, walking casually towards Frankâs room.
âKara, do you think Iâm going too far?â
Kara furrowed her eyebrows. âIn terms of what?â
Frankâs breathing sounded heavy. âMy behavior. Before I knew you, I was an arrogant man. You were also annoyed with me, right?â
Kara laughed a little. âYes, you were very annoying back then- especially, when you made me a guinea pig in that autopilot car. My blood was so boiling.â
âBut I got the karma straight away. Do you remember? You threw up on me.â Frank laughed too.
âYeah, but then, you cut my pay. You were really mean back then, Frank. Iâm thankful youâve changed.â
The man nodded. Slowly, the curve of his lips shrunk. His steps slowed down.
âSo,â he stopped and turned to face Kara, âyou agree that I went too far?â
Kara blinked slowly. Her expression turned flat. âWhy do you think about what has passed? Isnât the important thing that you are no longer like that?â
Frank took a deep breath. His lungs were a little tight. âIâve been so arrogant in front of Jeremy for years, not knowing that he was my brother-the true heir of Savior. I think it wasnât fair to him. I feel embarrassed. I was too mean.â
Smiling faintly, Kara stroked his
there any way to make you feel better?â
. âThen what do you want? Is
Frank furrowed his brows deeper. âI think that Savior is not mine. I have taken someone elseâs property. What do you think if I give position to Jeremy?â
Kara blinked. Her eyeballs moved slightly. âIf you think thatâs the way, do it.â
âAre you okay? When we get married, I might no longer be a CEO.â Frank frowned.
my
Kara laughed faintly. âWhat difference does it make if you are a CEO or an ordinary employee? You are still you. Frank Harper. The father of my children. The only man who succeeded in melting my motherâs heart to get me.â

Seeing Karaâs calm face, Frank felt relieved. Slowly, his shoulders. lifted again, letting go of the doubts that had been weighing him
down.
âIf I marry Isabela, I can guarantee that she will immediately leave me and turn to Jeremy. Iâm grateful that I chose you,â Frank whispered, wholeheartedly.
Kara blushed. As best she could, she stifled a bigger smile. âOkay, since youâve started seducing me, I think itâs time to end your consultation session. Get some sleep, Frank. You have something important to do tomorrow.â
âBut I still have one more question.â Frankâs voice was thin again. Obviously, he didnât want to be left alone with his noisy thoughts.
Kara shook her head as it was no big deal. âOkay, what? Just ask.â
âDo you think,â Frank breathed in, âJeremy would take it?â
Instead of sympathizing, Kara tilted her head with narrowed eyes.â Take what? Your apology or position?â Her tone was cute. She didnât
want tension freeze the air anymore
Realizing that, the corners of Frankâs lips rose. âBoth.â
Kara muttered as if in deep thought. âIf itâs about the apology, h definitely accept it. But if itâs about the position, I donât know. The are many factors to consider. His willingness, the impact, and you grandfatherâs reaction. Butâ¦.â
Kara put more emphasis on the last word before she continued, âI donât think you need to worry about the results. Whatâs important is your sincerity.â
She patted his loverâs chest lightly. Then, with a faint smile, she whispered, âGood night, Frank.â

âCan I sleep with you again?â he grabbed her elbow swiftly.
Kara sighed in amusement. âYou have not taken a bath yet.â
Not getting a negative answer, Frankâs face suddenly brightened. â Then wait for me. I wonât be long.â A second later, he ran towards his room. His behavior made Kara shake her head.
The next morning, Kara walked into the dining room with the twins on each side of her. Behind them, Frank walked slowly as he listened to Jeremyâs report. Nothing had changed between them.
âGood morning, Grandma,â the toddlers greeted cheerfully.
Seeing the twins, Susan let out a laugh. âGood morning, Louis, Emily. Wow! You look so neat.â
âThis is our first day of work, Grandma. We have to make a good impression on the other employees,â Emily said before raising her fists.
While carrying her daughter to the chair, Kara laughed crisply. âYou guys are very excited, hmm?â
âYes!â Louis said with round eyes. âWe have to make the most of our time, Mommy. When we start school, our time will be limited.â
âYou sound busy. What project do you want to work on?â Susan helped Louis get into the chair beside her.
